Discuss how nurses’ off-duty behaviors can affect their nursing practice. Note if your state lists any actions in its nurse practice act that you might take outside of work that might cause your license to practice nursing to be revoked by your state nursing licensure board (e.g., a driving while intoxicated conviction). Check your State’s Nurse Practice Act.
